Sorry about the delay folks, I had writers block for a couple of weeks,
whilst I was thinking of how I wanted this story to run. I had thought about some issues, and didn't like the way they went, so I'm going with this idea instead.
Thanks for the reviews!
They helped guide me, without you guys there would be no story!!
I'm jumping straight into the story, the conversation between Kagome and her mother will be picked up again later, and I hope you're still with me to read how it all merges together later on.
THANK-YOU'S go to;
SugarOo – Kags in major Kill mode in this one! Thanks for the review, I shall read through your stories and your LJ scriptures shortly.
Just-let-me-go – Thanks for your review, hope you continue to enjoy
Kandy123654 – Hey thanks for the review, I know that, there's going to be some soul searching, and I've decided to leave the part out between Kagome in the future and her mum, that will come back later, and all will make sense – I hope.
Kaihaku No Iroke – Another twist in the tale, Thanks for your review!
Jammydodger217 – I hope I keep you entertained with this Part of the story too!
Insanelycrazy – Reverent bow!! Thank you so much for your sweet words in your review, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Grey Pezzola – Her personality will keep flitting around, but it will all make sense, and have a purpose.
BxKitten – OMG I absolutely sweat dropped when I saw you're review! But after reading it, I have to say that I had taken a slight twist from the norm, but it will all make sense shortly. Kagome cannot hold a grudge specially for over 500years, you'll have to wait and see what's going to happen.
BxKitten – And I thank-you for your other review regarding chapter 19: Loss, that was a one off chapter, there were a lot of feelings in that one. I really went to town on that one, putting everything that I was feeling at that moment into that chapter – despite the circumstances, I believe that is one of my absolute BEST chapters.
Juusan'ya – You are the absolute best!!
Disclaimer : I do NOT own Inuyasha at all, only the dvd's that I bought!!
CHAPTER 2 – Another face from the past,
trying to come to terms with Saddakko's words
Kagome continued to sit at the fire-pit staring intently into the rich golden flames as they danced to a unheard melody, she watched as they swayed to and fro, enticing her to join in. Within the cool white of the flame she could see her 'mother's' face staring back at her, then her hurtful words drifting into her ears. Sesshoumaru had left the camp-site before dawn. Kagome didn't even acknowledge his silent leaving, she was lost within her own mind of hurtful words and lost understandings of why Saddakko would say that. She was still Kagome - Right? Underneath the Youkai skin, underneath the fangs, the claws and the beast, she was still Kagome. Or was she?
Unable to find the truth from within the flames, she lifted herself from her grassy position and approached the stream. She stood over the icy waters, looking at her reflection wondering if whether or not, the stream would give her the answers she sought. However; the stream did not speak, it only mirrored her image, the Youkai Kagome in all her dishevelment, red puffy eyes from the constant tears she masked away from Sesshoumaru, the bright red nose that would make Rudolph the reindeer place sunglasses over his eyes, her dishevelled hair, that held no sign of being taken care of over the last couple of days, whilst she was lost to her solemness.
Deep down she didn't blame Sesshoumaru for leaving 'he's probably had second thoughts about wanting me for his mate, after all look at yourself Kagome. You look awful! wash that look off your face this instant!' She berated herself. So dropping to her knees, she dipped her hands into the iciness of the stream, raising the water to her face, she threw it over herself.
'I refuse to allow a mere ningen's words to hurt my soul in such a manner' Bringing the another handful of water to her parched lips "I despise ningen's" she whispered hoarsely before taking a gulp of the cold water, to wash away the hateful remark that left her chapped lips. It felt like ice cold steel slicing her throat as it glided down.
Kagome stood. The water dripping from her chin, sliding back into the stream from where it was lifted from, she had sensed a presence behind her, she stood still, her youki flaring wildly around her.
-A warning to both Youkai and Ningen alike that she was not an easy target.
The figure behind her releases its own youki, now aware that a male demon was behind her, Kagome's heart sped up a fraction. She was alone in this forest, she was a target for any Youkai male. It was a well known fact that a female Youkai was nowhere near as powerful as a male.
This caused her to shudder slightly within her own skin, the demon behind her was leering at her, she could feel his gaze licking upon her flesh.
"If you value your pitiful existence, I suggest you stay away from my person" Kagome voiced, the muscles in her throat tense, and prepared to scream if she had to, if it would aide her escape from this unknown demon. However she heard the Youkai behind her approach slowly, his footfalls scraping the grassy earth beneath him.
From the sounds of his footsteps, he had strong legs, probably from doing a lot of running, she could hear the grassy blades, slip between his toes, a sign that his feet were bare. There were many sounds of shifting fur, and hair. Perhaps he was wearing a mokomoko, or he was an exceptionally hairy demon. Kagome turned slowly, her eyes trained upon his, to turn away or back down now would likely be the end of her existence.
Deep blue, the blue of the deepest Oceans stared hard into the black void of his eyes, she could almost see herself falling into those voids of emptiness should she underestimate him. He sneered at her, his tanned lips rising slowly, revealing a set of pearly white fangs. She understood now why there were multiple sounds of fur surrounding his person, he was dressed in them. He had long black hair, tied up high, a small piece of cloth wrapped around his forehead. He appeared to either a wild Inu, or Ookami male, He wore a pelt across his waist, a rich chocolate coloured one, her thoughts suddenly strayed to Auraya, her adoptive mother back in the mountains.
He chuckled, breaking her from her trance. She noticed his predatory gleam within his eyes.
"Fantasizing about me, well that makes things easier" he spoke, the harshness of his voice cracked over her soul, she'd heard that somewhere before, but could not place its whereabouts.
"What gives you that impression?" Kagome replied, her gaze refocusing on his face. He wasn't a handsome demon, he was rough around the edges, and had a cocky appearance. Especially the way in which he stood, hands on his hips, his chest pushed out. He continued to venture forward, inching closer and closer to Kagome.
"I'm warning you Youkai, stop where you stand or I will have to make you by force" Kagome growled for emphasis, showing her own fangs, sharp and deadly.
"All Youkai know damn well that a female is no match for a male" he voiced still venturing ever closer. Kagome adopts a fighting stance, hissing wildly. He now stood only a few feet from her, leering at her from close up. An alarming look in his eyes, that screamed within her mind to run.
"And one that is alone is a target to any male in the area" he took a light sniff in her face "A lone female, and an untainted female, this is most interesting, a female of your approximate age, should have been rutted some time ago." He added, Kagome now knew that look from deep within his fathomless eyes. He planned to take her virginity.
"what makes you, think I am alone" she hisses
"I see no-one else" he grins, placing a clawed hand upon her bare arm.
'not yet, not yet...' Kagome's inner self screamed, she furled her lip in disgust, as her touched her. He stepped ever closer, minimising that small space between them.
'a little more...'
He made a move on her, brushing his lips against her neck, Kagome wanted to vomit where she stood, she preyed deep down, that Sesshoumaru was here, he would keep these random Youkai away from her. Just his presence alone was intimidating enough.
She could feel his hot breath on her neck, could hear the parting of his lips, could feel the moistness of his tongue as it ventured towards a place that would not be his to taste or touch.
'...now!'
Eyes red with anger and disgust, Kagome grabbed his shoulders, and swiftly brought her knee to his crotch, he haunches over in pain, his hands flying to protect his throbbing assets, as he haunches lower in agony, she deftly kicks him in the chest cracking a few ribs in the process.
"You little bitch!" He hisses, trying to ignore the thrumming pain in his crotch, he stands albeit not straight as he would normally, and lunges for her. They dance in an array of hissing, scratching and furiously kicking one another. Kagome lands another painful blow with her foot to his chest once again, causing him to cough as the air is forced from his lungs.
Teetering on the edge of his control, the Youkai before her suddenly stands and grabs her roughly by the shoulders, bringing his own knee up into her chest, she falls momentarily to the grassy ground, the cool earth beneath her fingers washing their comfort upon her. She grabs a handful, as the demon approaches throwing it in his face, more so his eyes.
"You scheming wench! You fight dirty!" He yelled, as he managed to grab her once again by her arms, tugging forcefully to bring her to an upright position. Using his male strength he furiously kicks her in the stomach, causing her to sail into one of the huge maple trees her back collides against it first, causing the wind to escape her lungs, followed by her head, she drops to the ground one hand holding her chest, the other clutching the ground below. She pants, trying to draw in her lost breath, looking at him her red eyes burning with anger and disgust.
XxXxX
Meanwhile Sesshoumaru, was returning back from the Lands of the West with a special person, whom could lift Kagome's solemn spirits, She was riding on the back of Ah-un, the elemental fire dragon. Her brown hair pulled up into the customary side bunch she always had it in, her orange chequered kimono replaced with a sky blue one with white clouds all over it. Rin was indeed growing up, and growing up too quickly. Yet she was the only being within his estate, that would be able to fulfil the task of helping his Kagome through her ordeals.
Flashback
"What brings you back so soon, Lord Sesshoumaru? Did you succeed or fail? Where is Kagome? Did she stay?" Kagura questioned as arrived without Kagome upon his cloud of youki just before the dawn. He of course ignored the infuriating demoness
'why is she even here anyway?' he thought
'think of that later, need to find Rin' his inner beast roared from within the recesses of his mind.
Rin was sleeping in her bed, as he approached the small ningen child, she seemed to have developed a second sense as to the location of her Lord and father figure, as she abruptly opened her eyes, and sat up.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, you're back" she looked over his shoulder, then back at his face.
"Where's Kagome Okaa-san?" she asked, rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"come, you have the duty of talking with her" Sesshoumaru turned around giving his 'daughter' enough time to dress herself, before they set out to the forest once again.
"something went wrong didn't it Sesshoumaru-sama?" she enquired.
It never ceased to amaze him, how perceptive his Rin was, she knew how to make an icy Lord who detested all ningen's, all creation below his stature to caring for her as though he were his biological daughter. She acquired a sense of knowing how to handle situations that warranted her special understandings and knowledge. And this was one such task. She was dressed in ample time, they headed towards the stables to fetch Ah-un. She climbed upon their back without fuss, and they left the palace of the moon, returning to a saddened woman who would just be waking in the forest
End Flashback
"Rin, when we arrive, I shall leave you two alone for a time. I shall return around high noon. Should that give you enough time to talk with Kagome?" Sesshoumaru enquired as they flew towards the forest unaware of the predicament Kagome was already facing.
"Hai Sesshoumaru-sama, but where will you be?"
"Not far away" was his short reply. They continued their journey in relative silence.
XxXxX
Kagome shuffled beneath the base of the large maple tree, she was restraining her inner celestial sphere's, the solar and the lunar were both brimming with anger, at the assault upon their Kagome.
'channel me Kagome-san, we'll freeze that pathetic Youkai, he'll be frozen and then shattered into a million pieces, indistinguishable to his own okaa-san!' Lunar snapped within Kagome's mind
'no channel me Kagome-san, We will burn him to a pile of ash!' Solar hissed
'No! Please, Solar, Lunar I cannot channel you, you are both too strong for me to wield you, I need proper training. I know that I would burn out faster without the correct training in your methods'
'but you won't we are a part of you, Solar is your raging beast, and I, lunar are your reserve, should you extinguish your energies within your beast, I will be here to continue against your feat, you are able to channel us'
Kagome thought for a moment, could she use them? Could she get the help she so sorely needed, and prove to this Youkai that she was not a weak female like so many of the stereotypical ones. Could she? Would she?
A movement beyond the hedges caused Kagome to look up, the Youkai male followed her suit, as a young Ningen emerged from the brush, a smile upon her face, humming a tune of happiness. Kagome looked at the child as she recognised her to be Rin. She wanted to shout, to yell, to scream, but there was not enough air in her lungs to perform such a task. Rin sucked in a dragged and feared breath as her eyes fell upon the scene before her.
XxXxX
"I shall be around this forest, you are to talk with Kagome, and help her sort out her issues. I more than strongly believe that you are the only person capable of the task" Sesshoumaru said as he walked away, with Ah-un in tow.
Rin turned and walked in the direction of the camp, slowly humming to herself, lost within her own thoughts, of Kagome, Sesshoumaru and herself.
'Thanks for the compliment, Sesshoumaru-sama...I would love to know how you are going to sort out any problems in the future when you two are mated... Are you always going to send me to do your work? ... Not that I mind, I love Kagome Okaa-san, but there are times when Sesshoumaru-sama really should try to wok out these problems with his mate himself!...Now then I wonder what could've happened...I wonder how Kagome is?...I wonder if...'
And Rin was cut off mid thought as she stared in horror at Kagome who was wheezing at the base of a large maple tree, hand clutching her chest, as a large Ookami Youkai towered over her. She noticed the desperate look in Kagome's eyes, she was deeply afraid, and concerned as Rin has stumbled across them.
"what are you doing here? If you're here then Sesshoumaru-sama can't be far away" Kouga hissed, Kagome warmed at the idea that Sesshoumaru wasn't far away, but then why was Rin here?
'Rin, run please run!' Kagome screamed in her head. the heat from her raging beast was escalating with fear of what this demon would do to her child. He stepped back away from Kagome, and started to approach Rin.
'Could I channel my inner beasts strengths? Should I? Rin-chan!!'
'Solar I need your assistance!, release the beast within me!' Kagome screamed within her mind.
Kouga stopped, feeling a mighty surge of raw ancient power radiating from behind him, he turned looking over his shoulder, The female demoness was slowly drawing to her feet, she stood straight, then pinned him with a ruby red stare, that made his blood run cold within his skin for a moment. She looked deadly, her facial markings were distorted, jagged and raw, her fangs were larger, she hissed with a primal sound grating beneath the surface. Her claws looked painfully sharper. Kouga gulped, a female should not have this kind of raw power, she advanced, then broke into a sprint heading towards the Youkai before her. She begins her sharp attacks once again, renewed energy flowing through her, as she attacks the Youkai. Kouga ducks and blocks her attacks, but she is faster than she should be, she manages to cause a deep gash upon his shoulder, he roars out in pain, causing birds and smaller woodland creatures to disperse suddenly, Rin however is rooted to the spot, terrified.
XxXxX
Sesshoumaru wanders the forest boredom flowing from his being having a conversation with one's inner beast.
'Was it wise to have enlisted Rin in Kagome's healing...of course you baka...I should have known you would surface again...what do you mean by that? You've been far too quiet lately...I'm insulted Sesshoumaru. And I care because? Well you ungrateful bastard, you know you can always rely on me for that...
A piercing howl erupts the silence of the forest, causing all manners of small forest life to scamper away, Sesshoumaru stood still for a moment, pin pointing the location of the howl.
'What in seven hells was that?'
'sounded like a wounded demon'
'What's that...'
What power, can you feel that?
Silly question! Its coming from...
'where we left Rin and Kagome...must go to them now!
'Shut it, I'm already moving!'
XxXxX
Kagome is forcefully thrown against the maple once again, this time Kouga holds her hands down at her sides, using his brute strength. His rough callused hands tearing at her soft flesh as she struggles free. Rin's screaming echoing all around
"Lord Sesshoumaru! Lord Sesshoumaru!" She screams, tears falling down her face as she hides in the bushes, screaming for help from the only one she ever finds strong enough to handle everything.
"LORD SESSHOUMARU!" Rin yells from the top of her lungs
Kagome's blood rage slowly ebbing away, unable to channel her beast any longer, she starts to fall limp in Kouga's clutches, her erratic breathing calming down, the markings upon her face slowly becoming more defined. She glances over to Rin. She can feel the Youkai holding her coming closer and closer, his breath only a few mere centimetres away, the stench of his breath curdling her stomach. He looks over her neck and collarbone area, before whispering into her ear;
"you are un-marked by any Youkai, thus you are available for the taking" he slowly creeps his dry as bark lips up and down her neck in subtle anticipation that she will allow him to finally take her of her own free will. All she has to do is tilt her soft neck to the side, to allow him access to the vein, that is primarily bitten for marking.
'She should be submitting as a defeated female should. But this one still refuses.'
'Just have to force her then'
Once again she can feel his rough hands pulling her roughly to one side, jerking her neck free of obstruction, she twists and turns in attempt to escape, as hot tears fall from her eyes.
"Nno!" She yells, hoping with some slight distinction that Sesshoumaru would be close enough to hear that. Fortunately for her, he was in the vicinity, returning swiftly from when he first heard the howl of pain in her direction, and began to fly across the land masses to her and Rin.
"Now, now my wild one, It will only hurt for a moment" Kouga lowered his face to the juncture between her neck and collarbone. Kagome seized the moment to bite his cheek hard, drawing blood. Holding tightly with her teeth, as the blood from the wound trickled down her chin, onto her kimono.
On the scent of blood Sesshoumaru entered the clearing to find an Ookami holding his mate against her approval. Her fangs sunk into the flesh of his cheek, he noted Rin hiding in the bushes, holding her frame trembling at the sight of a wolf – the only creatures she feared. As the wind lifted, Sesshoumaru noticed the youkai's scent, It was the Northern wolf Prince Kouga.
Kagome noticed Sesshoumaru, and released the bite, Kouga looked at her, Striking her hard across the face, she fell limply against the tree. As he lifted his hand again, Sesshoumaru intercepted forcefully kicking him towards the stream.
Kagome in her ebbing blood fuelled fury, slid down the trunk of the tree to the grass, watching under half lidded red rimmed eyes as Sesshoumaru attacked the Ookami, Rin running towards her, cradling her face within her small hands, attempting to turn her eyes to her. Her eyes slid to a close, as she tried to reign in her composure. Tried to separate the howls from the moans, the words from the gestures.
"What gives you the goddamn right to touch her?" Sesshoumaru seethed, slashing his claws at Kouga once again
"I didn't know she belonged to you, honestly" Kouga cowered
"She - she was alone in the area, no-one was around" he added
"I was not far away" Sesshoumaru gritted between clenched teeth
"Yeah but how was I supposed to know she was your woman, you haven't even marked her. therefore I was under the impression that she was free game" Kouga yelled back, trying to save his worthless hide. Kagome growled loudly, ashamed of how he thought her to be easy
"I cannot kill you for the position that you hold, but If you ever touch her again in any manner, I shall see to it, that you NEVER sire pups" Sesshoumaru seethed, cracking his knuckles.
"Yes" Kouga lowered his head like a child being chastised.
Sesshoumaru looked towards his woman, and sighed "Are you suitably reigned in?" Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru with red rimmed Purple-blue eyes, before nodding slowly in acknowledgement.
"Are you kidding, she wasn't even in that state for long!" Kouga bellowed
"I don't think she's the right kind of woman for you, Sesshoumaru. I mean she has only been in that fuelled rage for no more than five minutes! A true Youkai female should be in one for a longer period of time, and still have energy to spare. you act as though she is as weak as a newborn" Kouga bellowed from his position, as he began to wring the water from his furs, the smell of wet fur was not tasteful in the warm midday sun.
"she is fighting the battle not to tear your heart out, I cannot kill you, but there is nothing stopping her, but her own free will, You should be thankful" Sesshoumaru added.
"How so?" Kouga asked.
"Have you truly not noticed, are you blind as well as stupid? Or do you work on the sole use of what lays beneath your furs" Sesshoumaru gestured to the muscle between his legs.
Kouga's eyes swept across her lithe body, eliciting a growl from Sesshoumaru, Kouga's eyes seemed far too prying for his liking "she does seem familiar...daughter to a Youkai Lord no doubt, is where I may have come across her before"
"no, she is adoptive daughter to a pack of wild dogs" Sesshoumaru corrected him.
"No wonder why she appeared so animalistic, so primal, it was a beautiful sight to...." Another growl from Kagome, and Kouga suddenly shut up.
"But if she has no heritage, why would you sully yourself as to want her? You are a Youkai Lord, therefore the Law states that you should mate with a Youkai Lady, not a common mutt"
Kagome had been reigning in her beast, the need for blood not number one on the agenda, hearing the conversation between the males, she had kept her breathing shallow as she slowed her rage, listening to them. Growling every once in a while when she could feel that Ookami's leering eyes upon her body, or hearing him talk about her in such an inappropriate manner.
But if she has no heritage, why would you sully yourself as to want her? You are a Youkai Lord, therefore the Law states that you should mate with a Youkai Lady, not a common mutt
The stinging in her heart just wouldn't back away, it travelled through every fibre in her body, to her eyes where, tears welled up. She tried to keep them away, but they refused, and slowly tricked from her eyes.
Sesshoumaru noticed the scent of salt in the air, and snapped his attention towards Kagome, she was struggling to keep her breathing in check, and he realised she had heard Kouga's comment.
Rin sucked in a breath, the comment that passed the wolves lips was creul and heartless, Kagome was a special person, she could outweigh any Youkai Lady, and as far as she was concerned, she was a Lady. She who had agreed to become okaa-san to her, was always nurturing, loving and open, willing to help despite the dangers it may put her in. She sacrificed more of herself than a Lady of the courts would.
She had even been murdered by the one she loved, years ago.
"I know you're listening" Sesshoumaru whispered, Kouga only watched as she lifted her head up as gracefully as a Lady would, thus tainting his ideas that she was not. She looked at them both with tear streaked eyes. Kouga suddenly gasped aloud.
"my how you resemble someone I used to know"
"She is one in the same" Sesshoumaru supplied, as they both watched Kagome stand tall, her eyes lowered to the grassy depths. Rin holding her kimono hoping that she wouldn't run away.
"You mean...Kagome-sama?" Kouga injected into the air.
"If I have no heritage, as you so state, You should not add the honorific behind my name" she snapped. the lines on her face were still slightly jagged, her eyes still a soft pink. as she turned her back and walked away from the camp-site. Rin standing in her wake looking sad and rejected.
"where are you going?" Kouga called out, ashamed that he had hurt her feelings after finding out it was indeed Kagome.
"To kill something" she hissed then she walked out of the camp-site.
It had been thirty long minutes, Sesshoumaru and Kouga had decided to follow her trail. Seeing as the mood Kagome left in was murderous, Sesshoumaru left Rin behind with Ah-un. If she was truly killing something, Rin did not need to bear witness, It did not take long until they stumbled upon a bloody scene before them.
Kagome was being attacked by hoards of Ningen men, laden with spears and swords. they were treading over the corpses of others who had tried and failed, their bodies ripped to ribbons, now laying in the ground. Kagome laughing, enjoying soliciting death upon these thickle headed fools.
Kouga stood in awe and disgust, how his kind and gentle Kagome was killing people, and enjoying it.
"You have to stop her" Kouga yelled at Sesshoumaru
'So many bodies, she truly is magnificent'
"Sesshoumaru!" Kouga yelled, Sesshoumaru looked at him "Why?"
"because you and I both know that this is not Kagome-sama, she is kind and gentle not...this!"
"you are referring to the old human miko, that she once was. Kagome is now an Inu-Youkai. she is perfectly fine as she is. She is clearly venting her rage, One that you instilled upon her person. If you had seen what she did to undead miko, and her haphazard Hanyou lover, you wouldn't be standing here, breathing in the air that you currently are. She would not hesitate to kill you, like she didn't Inuyasha." Sesshoumaru smirked watching as Kagome continued to vent.
"K-Kagome killed Inuyasha?" Kouga asked dumbstruck
Sesshoumaru smiled, "Quite wickedly"
Kagome stood upon a mound of bodies, blood staining her perfect skin. After venting all her pent up rage and frustration she approached Sesshoumaru and Kouga, the rage bereft from her eyes and her face.
"You cannot have enjoyed that!" Kouga exclaimed
"Oh but I did, every one of them had your face, it was my way of killing you over and over again, without actually touching you...Not as good as he real thing, but it would have to suffice" Kagome replied, wiping the blood from her clawed hands onto her blood stained kimono.
"It appears that some are still moving" Sesshoumaru threw into the air, Kagome turned, as to her surprise some were still indeed attempting to reach for a weapon. She laughed wickedly, lifting a hand in the direction of the Ningen body mound.
"Burn!" she whispered, from her hand a ball of malevolent fire expanded then flew to the mount of corpses and barely alive ningen's, she looked at Sesshoumaru, with a smile, one to which he smiled in return.
"You two were made for each other, The Killing perfection and his murderous bride" Kouga snapped.
"I would not object if you were to remove that tongue, maybe I turn it into a pendant to remind those who cross my path to keep that small twisted appendage in their mouth where it belongs" Kagome sneered.
"you wouldn't dare" Kouga yelped stepping away from Sesshoumaru
"Now that, Kagome, is not a bad idea"
"Whoa, Sesshoumaru..." Kouga hi-tailed it and ran away
"wouldn't want that disgusting thing anywhere near me anyway" Kagome responded when Kouga was well and truly gone.
"That vile thing touched me more than enough times for one day, I feel positively sick to my stomach" gone added, shuddering at the thought that Kouga had nearly taken her, twice.
"If I had known Kouga was around I wouldn't have gone" Sesshoumaru admitted as they walked back towards the camp to fetch Rin and continue on their journey to Hunt for Hakudoshi.
"I understand the reasons you left, and for that I'm not upset. You were thinking of my state of welfare and for that I am thankful. I may say that I despise ningen's, but I don't really mean it. I was just angry and confused at what she said... I could never hate Rin, she's too innocent for my hatred...thank you for not bringing her here either. I don't know what I would do if she saw the masses of bodies beneath my feet today".
They continued on in silence towards the camp, where they could hear Rin's humming to the same tune that she was humming to before she stumbled across Kagome and Kouga.
"How are you wounds?" Sesshoumaru enquired.
"The one's to my body or my mind?"
"Hn...both"
"Healing! Though I believe that the ones to my mind will likely heal a little slower than ones on my body. Is what Kouga said true, about the Law?" Kagome asked
"Yes, but you are an exception" Sesshoumaru admitted, hoping to turn away from the conversation, knowing the road it would eventually snake down. Kagome understood his wanting to leave the matter, and decided not to pursue it any further, until it was necessary.
XxXxX
"Hn, I have an idea, That pathetic wolf cub, has sparked a wave of ideas through my cunning mind." Hakudoshi sneered in contentment as he watched events unfurl in Kanna's mirror.
"I am devising a way to kill both of them in one foul swoop; she's going to crash and burn, and Sesshoumaru is going to be the one to kill her, and thus killing himself. Hn, It just might work"
